This year, the Sunday School has organised a day trip to Melaka Planetarium. This is one place that I thought of bringing my children but never got the chance to do so yet. So of course, I was excited and signed up both Elyse and Erwyn for the trip.
Malacca Planetarium Adventure Science Centre, aka Melaka Planetarium, is a learning centre dedicated to the exciting world of astronomy and science. Browsing through the web, I was surprised to find out that this is the biggest planetarium in Asia. It is measured up with a world class planetarium, exhibition hall and furnished with animation equipment that allows 200 viewers to enjoy video film on astronomy.
We gathered in the church and embarked on our journey soon after that. The children were excited as ever as we sat in the bus to travel to our destination. Somehow, they love to sit in a bus, especially after watching the Disney Channel - Tayo, the little bus.
When we reached the planetarium, we were ushered into the 3D theatre.
The show was awesome. The graphic, the sound, the narration - everything was perfect EXCEPT the audience. My two children were so scared throughout the entire show that I have to hug them tightly. Looks like they are too young to enjoy it.
After that, the group was separated into two - the older children went on to explore on the volcano whereas the younger ones stayed back to have a hands on experience on how to create a rainbow and build their very own rocket (made by straw though).

Lunch was served, and what else to give to the chldren except the perfect McDonald Happy Meal? We headed back to the church once again in the bus. The trip was fun but perhaps I would wait for them to grow slightly older before visiting again.
